A.R.E. Meeting for 9/8/25

Leader: Greg
 
Six Cayce students gathered to gain greater insight into the chapter on Virtue and Understanding. In the SFG book, we read the sections “The Way to Virtue and Understanding,” and “Personal Experiences.” There are two experiments to come from the sections:
 
Experiment 1: Each day allow a sense of peace to fill your life by being tolerant of others or of inharmonious patterns within yourself. Record situations in which you were understanding and tolerant when your old way of reacting might have been to think unkindly.
 
Experiment 2: Choose an example from your own life of an experience of faith in which you feel you touched the purity of the soul (e.g., a specific meditation experience, an_ especially meaningful dream, an experience of deep love for another person). For at least one or two minutes each day recall that experience and what you learned from it. You might want to have this recall period at the end of your daily meditation. Allow the insights of that experience of faith to guide your understanding of others for a week. Record your experiences of seeing the actions of others with a greater degree of understanding.
Example:
     Experience through faith:            I once had a deep meditation experience in which I felt how everything I do is really an expression of my wanting greater wholeness.
     Experiences during the week:     I was able to see the actions of others who usually irritate me as manifestations of their desire to be noticed, be loved and feel whole.
